Lucy Boynton poses topless with fallen angel wings in striking photoshoot as she reveals the lasting effect of playing Ruth Ellis in ITV drama


The British-American actress, 31, wore a pair of black fallen angel wings, long gloves and sheer stockings as she went topless for one striking shot.

The four-part series is described as 'a compelling legal and emotional rollercoaster' and is based on Carol Ann Lee's acclaimed biography A Fine Day for Hanging: The Real Ruth Ellis Story. Set in 1955 in the glamorous and intoxicating world of London club-land, Ruth found huge acclaim as the capital's youngest club manager and was the last woman in the UK to be hanged for her crimes. Laying Freddie Mercury’s partner and devoted best friend Mary Austin, Lucy received critical plaudits and award nominations, all while the film cleaned up at the box office – becoming the biggest biopic of all time.
